A place people go to work at either the start or the end of their career

Systems Engineer (Former Employee) – Phoenix, AZ – August 11, 2017

If you have little to no experience in your field, you can come work and get exposed to a lot of work situations for not a lot of pay.Sometime in the middle, you'll realize you're worth more money, and go someplace else to make more.At the end of your career, you can come and wait till you retire in relative low-stress peace.

I enjoy working for the Arizona Attorney General's Office immensely. As an experienced criminal prosecutor, the office and management afford me discretion to prosecute worthwhile cases and resolve those cases in the interests of justice.

The cases we investigate are often challenging and each offers a new learning experience. Interacting with the public and finding resolution for the victims is very rewarding. The hardest part of the job is the endless supply of new cases and the limited staff to work them, even though they are very deserving cases. The most enjoyable part of the job resolving a case.

Steady day to day work product;Inner workings of the DES/Child Protective Services of Arizona;Poor and abusive upper management;Coworkers were knowledgeable and awesomely fun;Dealing with egotistic attorneys;Helping abused children find security and safety.

Very busy position with a variety of responsibilities. Very fast paced office that required a high level of prioritizing. Job consisted of a lot of computer work with high levels of efficiency. Most everyone in the office was very willing to help each other out and get the work done. I improved greatly on my organizational and prioritizing skills while at this job. The hardest part of this job for me was learning when to ask for help. I felt the responsibility of being able to keep up and complete all of my assigned work. The most enjoyable part of this job was the great people I worked with and the many opportunities I had to learn new things.

A typical day at work for me was filing appellate briefs and motions.I learned the appellate process in the court system. Management was well organized and professional. My co-workers were like family. The hardest part of the job were the child abuse cases I read. The most enjoyable part of the job was reading the Court of Appeal decisions in our favor.

The culture in my area was ever-changing. I took on more responsibilities as we moved forward and learned a lot about the Finance and Accounting sides of my area. All of my co-workers and I got along very well. Everyone was willing to work together and help each other out.

Management is another story and I resigned from this position due to a hostile work environment.

I have had the opportunity to work in this agency as well as two other agencies within the state of Arizona. My observations and experiences with my current agency would have say its a disappointment of my initial expectation. There are great people here and much of the employees are very easy going but the management seems to be one sided and definite favoritism exists. HR does need improvement as IMHO lack experience necessary to invoke a positive environment. Most position offered are not one that allow growth so be weary as most positrons are looking for a specific skill set. I think the state is hit or miss with the various agencies and one can indeed find what they are looking for so having a friend within an agency to ask how it is can be helpful before taking a position as each agency management differs greatly!
